Written for the Republic, If the weeds and grass can be kept down among the cultivated crops until the plants have made a sutti- cient growth fully to shade the soil, on to give clean cultivation. soil. There is only one safe rule and that is to continue the cultivation until the crop can be considered as be left weeds and in good tilth can be done when thelast cultivation is given the soil should be left rea- sonably level, but fine and mellow. ‘ when it made and the soil So far as It is an exceptional case tan be wonsidered advisable to culti- of that band of patriots would have Phe complete aunihilation bree deep regret, and an irreparable loss to the world, Less than one-sixth of those heroes who were fighting for theie liberty and homes remain, but it is enough for seed corn, and liberty can rejoice, for she will have devotees and defenders so long as the descendants of those men survive, | ee The republican party was in power in Missouri a few years after the war and the record it made for looting and pilfering has ever since been a stench in the nostrils of honest men. Republicans had been in power in St. Louis fora long time. Last spring a Democratic Mayor and city officers were elected, A grand jury compos- ed of honest, reputable, fearless citi- zens Of both parties, is unearthing rottenuess in municipal affairs of that city, which almost stagizers be- lief and is on a parallel with that party's record in the state. Are the people of the state ready to again turnits affairs over to the republi- can party? Well, hardly. When the St. Louis Grand Jury tirst began probing into the affairs of t he city council and city officers, the Globe-Democrgit: objected to the in- Vestiv: i political capital, In the light of re- sults, there but the Globe's fears were well founded, and the political capital is not being made in the interest of or to the credit of therepublican party. Two members convicted and given penitentiary sen- tences, two in exile in a foreign coun- try to escape trial, a large numberof indictments including the republican ex-Mayor'’s son, who was his private secretary while in office. The ex- Mayor himself sued for the recovery of large sums misappropriated while holding the office of city collector and against which the criminal stat- ute has run, Is there any surprise that the Globe-Democrat wanted the investigation stopped? is no doubt The name of Major H. W. Salmon, of Clinton, is frequently mentioned for the position of chairman of the state democratic central committee. It is not known that Major Salmon would, under any cireumstances, ac- cept the position, but it is # recog- nized fact among democrats in all parts of the state, that the Major could fill the responsible duties of the position as well as any‘other man in Missouri. He isasplendid organizer, | thoroughly familiay with party work, | and enjoys the respect and confidence | of prominent democrats in all parte! He would make a! splendid record as chairman of the| statecommittee.—Clinton Democrat, | vate deep in giving the last cultiva- tion.

The Right Man for Senator. The nomination of the Hon. C. C. Dickinson, of Henry county, forState Senator on the Democratic ticket is a compliment well bestowed, Mr. Dickinson made a record as a mem- ber of the last Legislature which won for him the good opinion and well] wishes of the best-people of theState. He is able, courageous, honest, and believes in the literal practice of Jef- fersonian principles of government. Such material in the State Senate will insure that the lobby can no longer be charged with dominating the action of that body. The Demo- crat takes pleasure incongratulating the Democrary of Southwest Mis- souri in the selection of such high- class legislative material to place in the councils of the State-—Kirksville Democrat. Governor Pennoyer Dead. Portland, Ore., May 30,—Sylvester Pentioyer, ex-Governor of Oregon and one ofthe most prominent Demo- cratic politicians in the West, died at 5 o'clock this eveying from apoplexy. He was in apparent good health up to within a few minutes of his death. He attained much notoriety while Governor at the time Coxey’s army was parading in the West by reply- ingtoa request from President Cleve- land to preserve order and facilitate the passage of the mails by stating: “Ifthe President will attend to his business, I will attend to mine.” Johnson County Convéntion. Warrensburg, Mo., June 3.—The Democracy of Johnson county, in convention here to-day, elected dele- gates to the state. nominating, judi- cial and Congressional conventions.

The weakness, nervousness and irritability from which so many women suffer is in general due to dis- ease of the delicate womanly organism. When the disease is cured the general health is re-established. Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Prescription makes weak women strong and sick women well. It promotes regularity, dries disagreeable and enfeebling drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. When these diseases are cured, headache, backache, nervousness and weakness are cured also, "I was very weak and nervous when I com- menced takiug Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip- tion and *Golden Medical Discovery,’ about a year ago,” writes Mrs, M. E. Everetts, of 8 Oxford Street, Woodstock, Ont. "I had been suffering for seven long months, and had taken medicine from a physician all the time, but it seemed to make me feel much worse, My stomach was so bad (so my doctor told me), and my nerves were in such a state that I would start at the least noise. I felt irritable at all times; was not able to do any of my own house. work; had to keep help all the time. How I suffered God and myself alone know. I was greatly discouraged when I commenced taking ‘our medicines, but the first bottle seemed to help me, I took five bottles of ‘Favorite Pre- scription,’ two of ‘Golden Medical Discovery,’ also two vials of Dr, Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, I can highly recommend these medicines to all who suffer as I did, I never had better health than I now enjoy, and it is all owing to Dr, Pierce's medicines."
